The first contribution incorporates an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm Ant Colony System (ACS) to solve the static MCNDP with weak constraints. Second, a new algorithm is developed and has the capability to dynamically adjust its exploration parameter of the solution space. This enhanced algorithm converges quickly and automatically adjusts to the dynamically changing network environment. Third, a distributed approach is created replacing the previous centralized solver.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51960901304608,"sku":"NEW1288397461","price":28.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/dynamic-network-formation-using-ant-colony-optimization-1288397461","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
